A Productive Week

I wanted to use my free time during my first free week to work on some inventory for my shop and the local products expo I will be exhibiting at in November. I am quite satisfied I was able to finish three checkerboard sets!

That means making three checkerboards, three small lined drawstring bags to hold the checkers, and three large lined drawstring bags to hold the set.

That equals nine sewing projects. Whew!

My “coworkers” did slack off a bit this week, but, on the other hand,

they were very entertaining!

I made a few other small projects, but I will share those in a future post. I am so happy I accomplished my goals this week! Now I’m excited to move on to new projects (which means a couple new bag ideas to test).

Thanks VickiT! I made up everything! I bought a bag of wood circles and hand-painted them in red or black paint on one side, and stamped a crown on the other side. I also made a template in Word for the instruction cards with my shop banner across the top. ~Terri

Hi Terri, your checker project looks fun and colorful! (BTW, what is the fabric name..it looks great for a future quilt?)

Don’t you just love having “sewing buddies” (the four legged variety!) My two gals (dogs) are always at my feet watching and making sure that I have to step over them when I’m at my cutting table. They keep me on my feet (well sort of, if I’m not tripping over them!) Whats even funnier is to listen to them while they dream and their little “puppy barks”. Got to luv em!

Thanks for stopping by my notebook! I love to illustrate in my sketchbooks while listening to a steady beat.

I am passionate about life and what I do. I love being creative in many ways, traditional drawing and sketching, digital illustration, surface designs, fabric design, stationery, screen printing, gardening, and nature photography. I also love to explore and go on adventures. I hope you are inspired by your visit here!
